Baku – APA. Moscow cannot regard Washington’s statements as anything other than a call to action, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a weekly press conference in Moscow, Sputnik International reported.
"We received the statements voiced in Washington on Wednesday night and we hoped that these statements would be dennounced," Zakharova told journalists. "But unfortunately the US didn't do that."
US State Department spokesman John Kirby said at a press briefing Wednesday that the ongoing conflict in Syria could "no question" spill over into "attacks against Russian interests, perhaps even Russian cities, and Russia will continue to send troops home in body bags."
Moscow shocked with these cynical statements, Zakharova said. In fact, Washington blames Russia for recent tensions in the country.
"We cannot regard these statements as anything other than a call to action. This statement, as we understand, is addressed to these very radicals. We have no other choice in this regard since these statements have not been disavowed," Zakharova said at a weekly briefing.
